The suburbanite seizes local news
with avidity. Families who are known
to be peaceable and law abiding will
frequently skirmish with edged tools
for the tirst reading of the weekly pa
per. says Henry E. Snow in The Na
tional Advertiser. And don't for a mo
ment believe, reader, but what the pa
per is well thumbed after the last mem
ber of the family litis absorbed the lo
cal news. Hut that is not all. The pa
ger Is filed for future reference. Even
the cook is interested, and you won't
find her using the local newspaper to
kindle the kitchen fire with. She wants
to read It also.
There was a time when the tallow
candle posed for luxurious lighting
and the town crier with his bell served
as th« distributer of news, but that
was In the dark ages. What the elec
tric light is to the tallow candle the lo
cal newspaper is to the town crier to
day. In both cases the evolution has
been perfectly natural and brought
about by the law of supply and de
mand. The gossip of the town, once
retailed around the old iron stove at
the corner grocery. Is just as Interest- '
Ing today as It was then. Human na- ■
ture hasn't changed much in the last ;
hundred years, and human nature
won't change much In the years to
come.
The local newspaper spreads the lo
cal happenings of the town for the day
or the week in less time than a single
item of news traveled by word of
mouth years ago. The local newspaper
exists because it is a necessity. It will
continue to exist because it will con- I
tlnue to be a necessity for all time.
The writer lives In a suburban town j
and knows whereof he speaks when he i
states most emphatically that the value j
of the local newspaper to an advertiser j
consists largely in the eagerness with
which the paper is read from beginning ]
to end from the top left hand column
on the first page to the bottom right i
hand column on the last page. More- j
over, after the first outburst of energy ;
has subsided over the local happenings,
the reader lalls naturally Into the liablt
of reading whatever else the pages con
tain.
Advertisers do not use the local pa
per enough, and if they use it at all
they figure its advertising space so low
that it scarcely pays for the work of
the compositor who sets the advertise- j
meat.
The local paper goes into the home, j
Please remember that. There is no j
waste circulation to it because there
can't be. Nine-tenths of tlie people j
who read it are subscribers who pay
their subscription by the year. The
local paper is not generally sold in the
railroad train or on the electric cars or
at the new sstands. You must subscribe
for It if you want to get it, and when
you get it you are in your own home.
I ne of 4■ o1 tl on China.
The popularity of gold does not seem
to be confined to the costume. It has
returned to all Its olden prominence in
tableware and furniture and iu the for
mer Is used more largely than ever be
fore. In the new Importations it ap
pears everywhere. The plain band of
gold is no longer so highly regarded,
and the preferred style is the combina
tion of gold with rich, new colorings.
The principal colors in the host
French china are soft tints of green,
blue, canary and crushed raspberry,
with Ivory often as a ground, says the
New York Tribune.
One of the latest decorative designs
In fine Limoges is the iris in natural
shadings, especially the purple variety.
The long, slender leaves and the flow
ing curves of the blossom lend them
selves with peculiar ease to china dec
oration. In many cases these are out
lined by narrow pencillngs of gold or
are imposed upon a gold ground.
Some charming small dishes, such as
bonbon and olive trays, are of white
china, lined with gold, and make ex
tremely pretty bits of table decora
tlon. Larger pieces in plain white and
gold are useful to substitute for n dish
broken when the set cannot be match
ed. They always look well and har
monize with anything in tableware.
The gold used is no longer the bright
finish, but the dull, except when com
bined with colors, as in that case the
color deadens the gold.
Even to cut glass does the gold craze
extend, some of the newest having the
edges uf the facets defined in gold. A
novelty in this direction Is the gold
decorated sherbet glass with saucer
attached.
The new pottery shows the same
decoration more extensively than ever
before. Jardinieres, toilet sets, um
brella stands, all show the gold in one
form or another. Some handsome
toilet sets have decalconiania pictures
Inclosed iu designs worked out in gold
and colors.

I 'lit pins In the top of the stakes to lit

be about six Inches above the ground.
You can use your Judgment about
painting it. If you do, put some water
In It and let it stand about a duy before

It is stated on reliable authority that I
the professional career of Harry N.
! I'illsbury as a cln player will come
to an end in about two years, after
! which he pr poses to devote himself ill j
I earnest to th • study of law.
Itel'ore that happens, however, some
[ important events are likely to take
j place, not the least of which will be a
! match for the championship of the
world with Lasker. When the latter
was in New York throe months ago, he .
and I'illsbury had a private confab,
and the subject of a match between
them was touched upon. Nothing dell-;
nite tail be had concerning this iuter
estlng affair until the American cham
pion goes to Europe. which he intends
i to do early in IPOJ, to be gone a year
I or more.
j I'illsbury's fourth tour of this coun
j try will be a brief one, beginning about
J the Ist of September ami Listing until
j Jan. 1, when he ami Mrs. I'illsbury will
sail for England. While abroad lit; will
enter all the large tournaments in Eu
rope, including those at Ilanover,
Monte Carlo and Berlin, anil will also
tour the continent.
When I'illsbury leaves tlie profession
al arena for good, there will be no one
to take his place in the realm of blind
fold chess, for here he lias done what
no one else ever attempted. 11 i ~ record
of 20 games simultaneously without
sight of boards or men stands alone,
aside from the fact that he is able to
combine both checkers and whist with
his blindfold chess playing. The cham
pion has such a mastery over the art
that he is confident of his ability to
handle no less than 80 games of chess
In tins manner. It is a feat he is ex
pected to accomplish before he retires.

A Costly ,fol> of I'nintiuK.
Eighteen years ago, says the Kenne
bec (Me.) Journal, a Northeast Harbor
man wanted to paint his house. lie ap- j
proaehed an Ellsworth man and told
him if he would let him have $."»0 to
paint his house he would give him the j
deed to a piece of land which he owned
at Northeast Harbor. It wasn't much
good for farming land, but might be
worth something some day. The Ells
worth man gave him SSO and took a
deed of the land. A short time after
ward lie sold a half interest in the piece
to another Ellsworth man for £ 1,200. A
few years ago they were asked for an
option on the land at slo,ol*o, of which |
$2,500 was paid down, to be forfeited
If the land was not bought. The pur- :
chase was not made, and the Ellsworth
men pocketed the s2,.*<>o forfeit. A year
or two later they sold one-quarter of i
the piece for £7,."00. They still own 1
three-quarters of the original piece, and
it would take M'iiiething lik< .V-.V "so to '
buy it. liow that Northeast Ilarbor

the better rate of the two at an ac

Buckingham palace, it is infinitely
preferable as a place of residence, a
fact that the late Queen Victoria neat-

the bee's tongue is looked upon as a
matter of importance. The longer the

Feeding; Little Chicks.
It seems to matter little what kind of
food we give as long as it is rich in ihe
' elements of growth and the chicks keep
In the right condition—in fact, we
ought to feed as much of a variety as
possible. I am feeding my broodet
| chicks this season oatmeal the lirst few
days and raw corn meal with about
one eighth part animal meal mixed
with a little cold water and lots of
] hard boiled eggs. I had several hun
dred infertile eggs, and they make line
! food for chicks If one is careful not tc
feed enough to constipate them. With
hens I have to omit the oatmeal, for,
j although if Is the best food for chicks,
! It is too expensive food for even the
chicks after -1 days old, and some moth
• er hens cat more than the chicks. 1

IM n feathers.
Never omit to keep a record of the
product of the poultry yards. A show
ing of what is done there is sure to
make converts to poultry keeping.
Above the door of every poultry
house should be written this motto:
"Utility is the science and beauty the
art of poultry raising."
Every poultryman can provide shade
for his birds even if he can do no bet
ter than to plant sunflowers. It is ab
solutely necessary for young chicks to
have a cool shelter from tie hot rays
of the sun.
Go quietly among the fowls and you
will succeed better with the young
chicks. The quiet hen will hatch better
i and make a better mother. Some say,
"Give mo the hen that will fight for
her chicks," but not so. She will rush
about and trample her own In her ex
citement: so keep the hen quiet if you
would raise many chicks.

LEARNING TELEGRAPHY.
A Novel Device Tlint Should Aid
Would III* Operator*.
It takes tin* ordinary telegraph pupil
n long time to read infallibly the tiek
ing of the sounder. An instrument has
appeared, says a writer in the Chicago
Record Herald, which is designed to
simplify instructions in telegraphy and
to give in a comparatively short time a
complete knowledge of the Morse al
phabet.
The omnigrapli, as this instrument is
called, consists of a base board on
which are an ordinary key and sounder
and a toothed disk. A spring contact
adjacent to the wheel engages the pe
ripheral teeth of the disk. If the disk
be rotated, the spring contact is forced
outwardly by the teeth, but drops back
automatically and thus makes and
breaks the circuit. The experienced
telegraph operator detecting these
makes and breaks of the sounder rec
ognizes them :is the (lots and dashes of
the Morse alphabet.
A close inspection of the disk reveals
the fact that the teeth are so arranged
as to spell the sentence "John quickly
extemporized five tow bags." If the I
disk lie turned in a forward direction, j
tills sentence, thus oddly worded to in- '
elude every letter of the alphabet, is j
ticked off at the sounder. If rotated in
the opposite direction, the sentence will
be telegraphed backward.
This disk, which is completely under ;
the control of the student, can be turn
ed at any desired speed, thus giving
him an admirable opportunity of try j
ing liinisi If at all tails. If he is not a
quick reader, the practice can be taken
nl a slow rate and gradually worked tip
until it reaches a speed that would try
the most skillful operator. When the
student has learned to receive mes
sages at all grades or speed, he can
take up the transmission of messages
in the regular way by means of the
key which forms part of the apparatus.

ConplnK nmi FeeilluK Chick*.
1 do not have any particular style of
coop—a good roof and bottom of boards
always made so that it can be conven
iently cleaned. Twenty chicks to a lieu
I think about right. The coops arc
placed near the house for convenience
while the chicks are young, moving
them farther away as they grow older.
At about 5 or G weeks they are located
near a blue grass pasture, with a num
ber of apple trees for shade. Ilere
they have range until cold weather
drives them into winter quarters.
My first food for little chicks Is dry
wheat bread moistened with sweet
milk. This is good enough for the first
day. The second day oatmeal and mil
let seed are given, with mica grit. They
get water from the start. Up to -1
weeks old their food Is bread moistened
In milk, millet seed, oatmeal, corn
bread baked as for the table and crack
ed wheat. After they are 1 weeks old
I discontinue the oatmeal and bread
and milk and feed millet seed, whole
wheat and cracked corn, with corn
bread for breakfast, baked the day be
fore. After the chicks are 2 months
old I feed a bran mash consisting of
one-third each of ground oats, corn aud
wheat bran, moistened with milk, clab
ber or sour milk preferred. This I feed
in the evening, all they will eat.
I follow this method of feeding the
j iihl fowls, believing the evening the
i proper time for soft food. For late
| hatched broods (say the last of June or
first of July hatches) I know of no
place better for cooping than near a
cornfield, with a clover meadow near
by. The corn furnishes plenty of shade
through the warm days, and the clover
field supplies grasshoppers. I have had
good results from late broods raised In
this manner.—O. L. King.
